James Madison wins with a 7000 person crowd. If the zips draw them it’s going to be bumping for sure. I’d love them to stay ranked but I doubt with how weak there schedule will be compared to the P6
St bonaventure, a future zip opponent and the oldest team in college basketball just got a big P6 win against Oklahoma state. That game looks a lot tougher now. We need a good crowd to go to Cleveland hopefully the Ohio state fans help
In all seriousness the Zips should get 3 good tests in this tournament! FIU is 0-3 but stayed with ranked Miami Fl. I would love to win one of these tournaments for once especially since there are no P5 teams but we also need to take it one day at a time. Focus on FIU and beating them. Ofc the 3 games in 3 days is always good prep for Cleveland. Excited to see where this teams ceiling is.
Groce in his interview after the USM game got talked about how great it is to have Bass and Freeman as the faces of the basketball program and I have to agree. I hope they can build bass a squad for her senior year next year that can make a run!
We have no P5s but a potential gauntlet in mid majors. With SDSU, SM, Bradley, St Bodaventure and a road trip to UNLV ain’t easy. Plus whoever we draw in the Cayman Islands after FIU. There’s a really good drake team, Marshall and Utah State
Truth is I don’t think Akron is going to acknowledge until they hear from the NCAA.Nothing Groce and the team can do except for focus on who we have right now
